Deuteronomy 17:2-13

2If there be foundH4672 in the midstH7130 of thee, within any of thy gatesH8179 which Jehovah thy GodH430 giveth thee, manH376 or womanH802, that doeth that which is evilH7451 in the sight of Jehovah thy GodH430, in transgressing his covenantH1285, 3and hath gone and servedH5647 otherH312 godsH430, and worshipped them, or the sunH8121, or the moonH3394, or any of the hostH6635 of heavenH8064, which I have not commandedH6680, 4and it be toldH5046 thee, and thou hast heardH8085 of it; then shalt thou inquire diligently; and, behold, if it be true, and the thingH1697 certainH3559, that such abominationH8441 is wrought in IsraelH3478, 5then shalt thou bringH3318 forthH3318 that manH376 or that womanH802, who hath done this evilH7451 thingH1697, unto thy gatesH8179, even the manH376 or the womanH802; and thou shalt stoneH68 them to deathH4191 with stonesH68. 6At the mouthH6310 of twoH8147 witnessesH5707, or threeH7969 witnessesH5707, shall he that is to dieH4191 be putH4191 to deathH4191; at the mouthH6310 of oneH259 witnessH5707 he shall not be putH4191 to deathH4191. 7The handH3027 of the witnessesH5707 shall beH1961 firstH7223 upon him to putH4191 him to deathH4191, and afterward the handH3027 of all the peopleH5971. So thou shalt putH4191 away the evilH7451 from the midstH7130 of thee.

8If there ariseH6965 a matterH1697 too hardH6381 for thee in judgmentH4941, between bloodH1818 and bloodH1818, between plea and plea, and between stroke and stroke, being mattersH1697 of controversy within thy gatesH8179; then shalt thou ariseH6965, and get thee up unto the placeH4725 which Jehovah thy GodH430 shall chooseH977; 9and thou shalt comeH935 unto the priestsH3548 the LevitesH3881, and unto the judgeH8199 that shall beH1961 in those daysH3117: and thou shalt inquire; and they shall show thee the sentenceH4941 of judgmentH4941. 10And thou shalt do according to the tenor of the sentence which they shall show thee from that placeH4725 which Jehovah shall chooseH977; and thou shalt observeH8104 to do according to all that they shall teachH3384 thee: 11according to the tenor of the lawH8451 which they shall teachH3384 thee, and according to the judgmentH4941 which they shall tellH5046 thee, thou shalt do; thou shalt not turnH5493 asideH5493 from the sentenceH4941 which they shall show thee, to the rightH3225 handH3225, nor to the left. 12And the manH376 that doeth presumptuously, in not hearkening unto the priestH3548 that standeth to minister there before Jehovah thy GodH430, or unto the judgeH8199, even that manH376 shall dieH4191: and thou shalt putH4191 away the evilH7451 from IsraelH3478. 13And all the peopleH5971 shall hearH8085, and fearH3372, and do no more presumptuouslyH2102.
